The Dubai Gold Cup is a thoroughbred horse race held in Meydan Racecourse, Dubai, United Arab Emirates. It was first run in 2012 as part of Dubai World Cup night. It was initially a Group 3 race and has been run at Group 2 level since 2014.
The first running of the race was marred by the fatal injury sustained by Fox Hunt. The race was abandoned and rerun later that evening.[1]
